[Secondary glaucoma in pseudophakia]
Abstract
317 eyes of 288 patients who underwent cataract surgery with IOLs implantation since 1987--were examined. Secondary glaucoma was found in 31 eyes (9.8% in 10.8% with ACIOLs and in 8.6% with PCIOLs. The risk factors of intraocular pressure increasing were intra- and post operative complications, especially vitreous loss and posterior capsule lesions, as well as ACIOLs implantation in the eyes with extracapsular cataract extraction and planned PCIOLs. The changes of anterior chamber angle, visual function and methods of treatment in this type of glaucoma are also presented.
